Of your many talents,

But you are only my employee.

( sighs )

There's an old Chinese saying.

With the rich and powerful,

always a little Patience.

Very clever of the Chinese.

I have an idea.

Why Don't you ask smith

for a job?

Then you can be

with Sammy all the time.

It would be easier

If my concern were

purely selfish, wouldn't it?

I really couldn't

be less interested.

You'd love it

If somehow

you could convince yourself

You'd been betrayed by everyone.

Then you'd really be happy.

No guilt,

And full of

self-pity.

Quite a speech.

You ought to hear it

in Chinese.

( door opening )

There are one

or two of us

Who care what happens to you,

Though I can't imagine why.

Jenny, I'm...

( sighs )

Sorry.

( knock at door )

Come.

Good evening, Mr. Orlok.

Where would you like this?

Oh, anywhere.

It doesn't matter.

Uh, the dinners are

in the warmers, sir,

Under the table.

Thank you, sir.

Good night.

Enjoy your dinner.

( door closes )

Man:

They've got another one now.

Man:

Who?

Are you ready?

Who?

Joanie man.

( laughter and applause )

Joanie man.

Joanie man?

Wait till you hear this.

What does she do?

Yeah.

She takes off everything

but her earphones.

( laughter )

Mm.

Well, I have to go

to work now.

Well, I think

it's just awful.

Can't you get switched

to the day shift?

Oh, it's only for

a few more weeks.

Yes.

In the fourth row?

Yes.

Do you really?

Yeah, from Lenny's.

Oh, no, no, no,

Joe, fourth row.

Fourth row,

behind him.

One, two, three, four...

I'm giving you

a memory test now.

I'm taking you back

to south Philadelphia.

Do I remember? I remember

the lady in green.

Do you?

Evidently,

that must be her daughter...

That's right.

Because I know the lady...

the lady in green...

( both humming )

Pardon me?

Man:

Lily from Philly.

Lily from Philly.

Lily from Philly!

Last week, it was Millie

from Philly and...

( television fades

into the background )

Hmm.

Don't go.

Ooh!

Bobby, Don't be silly.

What? You could

call them up,

Say you were sick.

One night, what's

the difference?

Oh, it's not right.

What should I wear?

Come on,

just tonight.

Oh, and besides,

it's too late now.

They couldn't get a substitute

For me that fast.

Oh, what do you mean?

The phone company's used

Well, it's not

Should I wear

this sweater?

Oh, it's got a run.

Oh, well.

I want to talk to you, Ilene.
